Hi all, Thanks for your responses. I fully agree with Vavani Sharma's comment "You should not allow anybody to waste their valuable time doing some picketing, Assam Bandha etc."
BTW, i didnot mean "National Media". Though that might be important, I think more important is positive approach of our local media which would help to develop a positive mindset in our people, particularly the young generation. Let's not forget, "Charity begins at home" (Sukumar) --- Vavani Sarmah <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I do not see the problem only at the national > media, the basic problem is at our end.
